Upali received full ordination, mastered the five sections, the virtuous teacher Yeshe, practiced with offerings to the mother, Mahakashyapa promised to be the teacher, Ananda and others came, the mother of beings promised the eight weighty dharmas, the son of the Brahmin Potayana answered the questions, the sixty virtuous assembly members promised the three refuges, and those who requested to be ordained and fully ordained were all spoken of in the previous ritual. Second, there are four points to refute that the empowerment without a fixed number is a method of maturation and liberation: using the example of the disappearance of mantras due to the lack of a fixed number, the way this behavior is prohibited in the scriptures, explaining the meaning of that scripture, and dispelling the doubts of others. The first point is: Therefore, the three verses of the Hearers, etc. The second point is: This is Vajra, etc., thirteen sentences, performing empowerment for disciples without a fixed number is prohibited by Vajradhara.

Others, etc., in whatever tantra, as long as there are activities such as empowerment, but the rituals of the activities are not clear, the general tantra, etc. should be referred to. Third, refuting that the impure mandala empowerment is a method of maturation and liberation: Nowadays, blessings, etc., thirteen sentences, the reason why mantra vows cannot be obtained even if empowerment is performed in those mandalas is: external
